As West Ham United prepares for the January transfer window, their recruitment team, led by chief scout Max Hahn, has made Canadian and Nigerian striker Promise David a priority target. It has been reported that Hahn presented a shortlist of attacking talents from Belgium to manager Nuno Espirito Santo, and David is a prominent target on that list, having scored 24 goals in 46 appearances for Union Saint-Gilloise since joining in 2024. According to Claret & Hugh, West Ham have made an initial inquiry regarding the 24-year-old's availability. Hahn continues to evaluate other options in the Jupiler Pro League. Union Saint-Gilloise are reluctant to sell the striker, who is contracted until 2029, and West Ham are now considering whether to submit a formal bid when the window opens. This season, David has scored 6 goals in 13 Jupiler Pro League appearances. The forward has 8 caps and 3 goals for Canada. According to Transfermarkt, he has a current market value of €13.00m. He has also been linked with VfB Stuttgart.
